The Phoenix Business Journal just announced it’s inaugural list of Green Pioneers: the “Champions of Sustainability” who have continually moved the needle for green business, products, and practices.
One of my favorites is the cool looking Turf Tube sustainable outdoor seats. Designed by Urban Earth Design LLC, the Turf Tube uses some recycled materials in its metal base and astro turf seat. They cost between $350 and $400, and have mostly been used for commercial projects, including the Children’s Museum of Phoenix and Banner Gateway Medical Center.
Congratulations to the rest of the list of Phoenix’ Green Pioneers:
- Philip Beere, owner, Green Street Development
- Damon Brasch, owner and chef, Green
- Diane Brossart, president, Valley Forward
- Mick Dalrymple, co-founder, AKA Green
- Mara DeFilippis, founder and CEO, Phoenix Green Chamber of Commerce
- Kimber Lanning, director, Local First Arizona
